The Human Condition

What does it mean to be human? This is the most pressing and divisive question of our day. Does it mean being true to ourselves? Does it mean being free from systemic oppression? Does it mean nothing more than being advanced organisms? The Bible’s answer is far more relatable and satisfying than any of those provided by our culture. But in order to understand it, we need to take a deep look at the doctrine of sin. Listen as Pastor Josh explains what these verses teach us about our fallen human condition.

Three Unchanging Truths About God

What the Bible teaches about the nation of Israel in the era of the New Testament is fundamental to how Christians respond to current world events. In this text, however, the Apostle Paul shows us that everything – including what we believe about Israel – is meant to serve the greatest purpose of leading us to know and worship God. Listen as Pastor Josh explains.

A Portrait of the Godly Woman

The Bible gives us many portraits of a godly woman. A helper for her husband. A wise and generous merchant. A radically devoted follower of Christ. These verses give us another portrait of a woman who intentionally dresses modestly and devotes herself to good works. Why is modesty important when it comes to femininity, and how do we teach about its importance to our children in a wise and helpful way? Listen as Pastor Josh teaches on how true modesty and true beauty must always be rooted in the gospel.

A Portrait of a Godly Man

What comes to mind when you think about masculinity? A well-dressed gentleman? A bearded hunter? A corporate executive? A muscular brute? Contrary to these popular depictions in our culture, this verse shows us that true masculinity is expressed in a life devoted to prayer. Listen as Pastor Josh explains.

The Eternal Word

Who exactly was the child born in the manger that we celebrate at Christmas? The gospel of John tells us He is the Eternal One. In this study of eternity and time we are introduced to the identity of Christ.

Be Doers of the Word

All Christians face a common struggle – the mismatch between hearing and doing the word. Often, we hear a lot but do little. This struggle can push us to a very dangerous direction, that we show little concern about this mismatch. We may even convince ourselves with biblical material, that merely hearing the Word without doing anything is enough. Listen as Pastor Fengyu walks us through James 1:22-27 and shows us that God desires us to be doers of His word after hearing it.

The Living Stones of the Church

What would you say if the Bible compared you to a brick? That is exactly what the Apostle Peter does in 1 Peter 2:4-10. Christians are “living stones” that Christ is building up to become a “spiritual house”. What does that mean? Listen as Pastor Josh explains the significance of this metaphor for life in the church.

Bringing Our Anxieties to God

We live in what has been called an “epidemic of anxiety”. Our culture deals with anxiety through therapy, medication, and/or removal of triggers. What does the Bible say? Psalm 27 provides us with one example of how an ancient king brought his anxieties to God and found relief. Listen as Pastor Josh shows us how this beloved Psalm gives us tools to bring our anxieties to God.
